Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

The divisive atmosphere within Academy City was swept away.

The Board of Directors decided to impose the cruelest punishment on the traitors within the city.

Given that these people had caused a major incident and brought so much harm to everyone, the board arranged for them to be turned into Furries and sentenced them to the most difficult manual labor in Academy City. They were also given special "Sinners" bracelets to control their sentences.

Only after their sentences were complete would these people be allowed to return to their original forms and rejoin human society.

However, the actions of the Academy City Board of Directors were not met with public approval. A group of strange furry enthusiasts voluntarily became criminals, wanting to join the ranks of the sinners, bringing a small wave of aftershocks to the chaos.

Due to the overly advanced method of punishment, some ordinary residents did not quite understand it, and even considered the act of turning into a furry to enhance the sinner's mobility as a special reward.

This forced the Board of Directors to come out and seriously explain the main design philosophy of their action plan.

After all, this was a punishment method that His Majesty the Emperor had come up with on a whim. The overly advanced future technology made it difficult for many to understand.

This required someone to explain the reasons behind the policy's execution.

Kiana felt a bit out of sorts when she went out on the street. She looked at the furry sinners, knowing in her heart that these were the guys who had caused trouble for Academy City. Although these people were not executed, and Academy City had minimized the death toll with its superb medical standards.

The only thing to be feared afterwards was the Honkai sickness. The physical injuries were not even as numerous as those caused by the battle with the Second Herrscher, Sirin.

There was nothing she could do if no one understood. Look, the security team's spokesperson, Hachiman Hikigaya, was giving another strange speech on the big TV by the street.

[...Depriving them of their identity and genetic information, severing the transmission of their genetic information, thereby destroying the genetic information passed down from their ancestors...]

[...These sinners will never be able to return to their original selves. Even with the same appearance and body, they have completely lost the blood ties with their parents and grandparents...]

[...Academy City's punishment for sinners is definitely a heavy blow, making it impossible for them to have any blood ties with their relatives, and at the same time, their blood relationship household registration certificates will be destroyed...]

[...Destroying the basis of their family's ethical connections from the root...]

It sounded terrible, but maybe it wasn't that terrible. It was just modifying people's genes so they no longer had any blood relationship with their parents.

Some said such a punishment was too harsh, while others said it seemed useless.

A new urban ethic was being constructed. As Kiana inspected the land she would rule in the future, she only felt that the people here were full of resilience.

She could tell at a glance that everyone had a bright future.

Just like how Noldrei wouldn't let Tesla eat at the table. Tesla rarely ate at home with everyone anyway. Even if she couldn't sit at the table, Tesla could still control an iron bowl to feed herself.

No one knew if Tesla at that time was deliberately provoking him or not.

But these furries faced a lot of discrimination in society. Once their sentences were over, no one would know that these people had served time before.

I feel like something is a bit strange... After causing so much chaos in Academy City, this is the only punishment?

Kiana had been thinking of killing one or two to vent the "people's" anger.

"Fortunately, those main organization leaders were all eliminated in secret..."

Kiana didn't bother with those who had been tempted. She mainly handed over the most heinous criminals to Hei to deal with.

The girl's mood was not very good.

Back then, she was still following Noldrei around for shopping with the appearance of an eight-year-old. Now, she was semi-ruling this Academy City.

At such a young age, she already had her own crown prince's shogunate. It was clear how boring her life had become.

Her life was indeed a bit lonely. She felt that she wasn't that important. Besides maintaining the Stigma hub of Academy City, she didn't have much of a role.

In a short period of time, several new ponies and new daughters had been developed.

This almost made her have the idea of seizing power.

Just as Kiana was feeling bored while shopping alone, she unexpectedly saw Durandal appear before her.

To be honest, Kiana still felt a bit strange facing this sister of hers.

She had taken her name, taken her father and mother, and was even still being taken care of by her.

Durandal, are you really that nice? Durandal, if you go out like this, you'll easily be tricked by Noldrei.

"Oh?! Kiana! Are you out shopping too? Wait a minute, get me another ice cream!"

Durandal ordered another ice cream at the shop entrance. She held the ice cream and came to Kiana's side.

After seeing her little sister's achievements, Durandal felt nothing but joy from the bottom of her heart.

"Here, this one's for you."

Although she couldn't get an ice cream from Noldrei, being taken care of by her sister was a comfort to Kiana's hurt little heart.

"Big Sis, aren't you with Schicksal? I remember those Valkyries were in quite a mess. Have you dealt with them all?"

Kiana asked about Durandal's recent situation. She didn't know the inside story of Durandal's reorganization of Schicksal.

"It's done. I gave them all a good scolding. Once they vented those emotions, they returned to normal. Compared to that, you, my little sister, were not in a mess at all. You saved a lot of people in the chaos. If you hadn't arranged for your people to clear the traffic in time, I'm afraid Heliopolis's special medicine wouldn't have arrived in time."

Durandal said happily, "But there are benefits to this. After this chaos, besides getting rid of some troublemakers, the Holy Mother Cult was also eliminated. The last time Schicksal and Anti-Entropy worked together was against the Second Herrscher. Oh, wait, I'm not talking about you!"

She suddenly remembered that the Second Herrscher was closely related to her little sister.

Kiana didn't mind this. She shook her head and said, "That's all because everyone was well-organized. I was just a leader sitting in charge. I feel like a statue on the street, only worshipped when needed."

[...Our security team will step up our efforts to protect Academy City...]

The voice from the big TV coordinated with Kiana, as if confirming the distribution of credit. This really made her unable to hold it in.

That shorty Bronya just loves to seize power!

Durandal looked at her little sister and asked, puzzled, "Then what are you still worried about?"

Kiana hesitated for a moment and said, "I just feel that things are not that simple. After all, we don't seem to have caught the mastermind. Look over there..."

She pointed to a long queue not far away and said, "Those are all people trying to join the training courses. After being affected by the Honkai sickness this time, they have quickly begun to accept the idea of human modification."

Durandal also looked at the long queue, at the heads lined up one after another, waiting to learn about the future of Academy City.

It was just like how Schicksal used to fool those Valkyries. With the reason of "protecting more people," they would pull Valkyries who didn't have high enough Honkai resistance to do experiments.

"Hey, Big Sis. I want to swap identities with you for a while, can I? Just take it as a willful request from me. I just want to get to know you better."

Kiana had a sudden, amazing idea.

Durandal, who was licking her ice cream, also froze for a moment and looked at her whimsical little sister.

Durandal hesitated for a moment, but thinking that there would be a long period without any Honkai incidents, she agreed to the request.

But Durandal never expected that the delay of the Honkai would be unexpectedly long.
